Division Systems

© Fraunhofer FEP

The division “Systems” is a cross-sectional department of the Fraunhofer FEP and supports the research work of the physics and technology departments. We develop and manufacture key technological compo-nents for electron beam technology, sputtering technology and plasma surface technologies. These key components are used both in the Fraunhofer FEP test facilities as well as part of “integrated packages” at our industrial partners. They are usually not available on the market and are offered to our partners as tailor-made solutions based on customer-specific requirements. We are able to cover the entire value chain from the initial idea, through design and development, to the realization of prototypes or the finished product.

The development and production portfolio includes plasma and electron beam sources in a wide variety of designs, as well as technological power supplies specially adapted to these devices and the associated analog and digital control technology. Device technology for focusing, centering and deflecting the electron beam and pulsed power supplies with intelligent, fast arc switch-off for controlling atmospheric pressure plasmas complete our development and manufactur-ing expertise.
